Detailed Description

This crankcase breather hose is engineered for emission control and crankcase ventilation routing where the original hose has cracked, softened, or no longer seals correctly. The molded shape, OE-exact dimensions, and push-in/bolt-on end configuration help maintain the intended path between the engine block and PCV valve on the 1998 Volkswagen Jetta. If you are searching for a 1998 Volkswagen Jetta engine block to PCV valve hose or a Gates EMH085 emission control hose, this replacement matches the listed application.

This part cross-references Dorman - HELP 46069 for the same application.

What It Helps Fix

  • Cracked or brittle crankcase breather hose
  • Vacuum leaks in the crankcase ventilation circuit
  • Emission system routing problems caused by a damaged hose
  • Oil vapor leakage from a poor hose seal
  • Rough idle or drivability issues related to ventilation hose failure

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the hose routing before removal and compare the end styles, centerline length, and inside diameters to the original part. Inspect the mating ports on the engine block and PCV valve for wear, buildup, or damage before installing the new hose. For best results, replace any hardened or damaged adjacent ventilation components at the same time.

Quality Assurance

Gates manufactures this EMH085 hose as an OE-exact replacement for emission control and crankcase ventilation service, using materials selected for durability and service life. It is intended to restore the emission system to proper operation on the listed Volkswagen Jetta application.
